Now even old-timey racists know they don't own their girlfriend's bodies so... progress?

Unless she was posting NSFW photos with her paramours on Instagram, she isn't "promoting it". It's pretty racist that he thinks people will see a black man with his girlfriend and assume they're fucking.

In that case the concept is "status" - a young, beautiful girlfriend who doesn't do anything visibly that society considers shameful, like cheating - rather than "cuckold."

Maybe Sterling and his equally racist wife Rochelle have a cuckquean thing going on?
5
Cuckhold fetishist? No. Sterling and his "girlfriend" are simply exchanging money for sex. He truly doesn't give a shit who else she sleeps with.

This is the 6th article on this the Stranger has run. Not a word about the white man beaten nearly to death in Detroit over a week ago. Not a word about the disabled man robbed and roughed up on Capital Hill about a week ago. But an old white man half way across the country says he doesn't care if his girlfriend has black friends or lovers but doesn't want her to put it on instagram and you wet your pants ? God you are pathetic.

Here is a link. Thanks Stranger for keeping your readers in the dark about a mob that abuses disabled people on Cap Hill that are on the loose. But at least you let us know about every racist word a white person utters anywhere in the country.

no instagram, no scandal. learn your lesson, 81 year old fuckhead billionaires. it's just an app. pretend you're like most 81 year olds and don't be bothered to use it.

I know I need to feel sad for black men who are just so darn fetishized for their sexual prowess. Alas, my kingdom to feel that, at least for a day.

@7

You should apply for an apprenticeship and ask to cover these news items.

I hadn't thought of the whole chuckhold thing, I thought he was just OK with her getting schtupped by other guys.
But thanks Dan, for the role you just played in my not listening to the tapes.

BTW, I was just telling my roommate that this was a situation where I disliked everyone directly involved. Sterling is not just a racist, he's an all around douche. His young arm candy comes off as a manipulative gold digger. And given his history, why in the hell was he about to get an NAACP award. The players on his team are the only ones who have come out looking good, and now that sterling is being forced to sell, I hope they win it all as a final fuck you to him. I don't even like basketball!

Oh please Sterling's attitude is easily summed up in the phrase "the help uses the back door". Master doesn't care if the house slaves have relations with the field slaves just use the back door.

A completely understandable mindset, one must always keep up appearances after all.
13
Perhaps she's just arm candy (not that that's an excuse for him) and he's okay with whatever it takes for her to be happy?
14
He's probably a RFCF who ran out of money to support his g/f and quickly staged a way to unload the Clippers for a quick sale without too much friction.
15
@14, Sterling is a billionaire many times over. Even if he gave the Clippers away for free, it wouldn't make the slightest dent in his overall net worth.

I agree with Dan. If you actually listen to his voice, he doesn't sound remotely turned on by the idea of his girlfriend fucking other dudes, regardless of their race. So, not a cuckold. He just sounds like a racist, misogynist asshole who only cares about his public image and doesn't want to be seen with darkies.
16
@14 god you're dumb. you get the job of out house attendant.
17
Rather a pity if he isn't; that would surely have stopped the momentum of the current trend, which had been getting out of hand.
18
Agreeing that his comments are ugly and unacceptable in this day and age, I still wonder if we should be at all concerned that it is apparently "okay" that the content of a private conversation, covertly recorded, in your own home, now justifies the confiscation of your property and the loss of your profession? Regardless of your actual public and professional conduct?

Nah... Probably not... What could possibly go wrong with that standard in a world where the NSA is recording every communication we make?
19
@18, nothing has been confiscated and "rich guy" is not a profession.

If the girlfriend broke the law by recording the conversation, then let her face the legal consequences. What we have here is two other private parties ending a contractual relationship in an ugly and public fashion.

Which is to say that yes, I'm perfectly fine with illegally obtained evidence being used as a basis to punish somebody, outside the courts, for their appalling behavior. I also thank Anonymous for hacking the Steubenville rapists.
20
If he's not a cuckold, what is he? Has he basically hired an in-name-only "girlfriend?" Is he complaining because he's afraid people will find out there's no lead in the pencil?
21
so they have to call me

What does that mean exactly? Who's they?
22
@19 there's a big difference between anonymous hacking emails and exerting pressure on rapists/rapist-enablers and a private conversation leading to this level of social and financial consequences. The guy sounds like a douche, he pretty clearly is a racist asshat....but I don't think that should be newsworthy to the degree that it's been hyped.
23
@19 I'm sure you've never said anything to someone in private that you wouldn't want played back on national TV ....

@18 & 22 I'm with you--I think this is an extremely slippery slope we're treading here. Especially as this was recorded surreptitiously and illegally, and was not even something that was said in a public interview, like the case of the Duck Dynasty guy.

24
The argument over the recording and it's release is part of why I said no one here looks good. I'm sure slipping the recording to the press was an act of vengeance and manipulation on her part. Apparently walking away isn't enough for her.

Please wait...
